Sharp eye, the first thing you see when you look at the image.

Great close up with lovely details. A big part of me is wishing to see the rest of the bird.
Thanks for looking,

Impressive closeup flight shot KK. Sort of reminds me of our American bittern, although if I saw one with white wings like this I would go nuts! If you have more images with the entire bird visible I would like to see them/one.
